Relax man, I meant to type YOE but mixed it up with LOE in the midst of a work day

When I was job hunting last time, I did a fair amount of studying into systems design. There's always obviously more to learn but I already have a fair amount of exposure to it.

One of my plans is to read more industry engineering blogs for sure though

Yeah I was debating putting that info in OP because I'm also unsure of which direction I should go. I have experience in Java, Javascript, Python, database language / querying, systems design, cloud infra, etc. all the foundational stuff of backend devs (+ some full-stack experience).

I'm a mid-level backend dev, ~3 years YOE. I wanted to seriously start thinking about expanding my skillset and learning new stuff / new technologies outside of my daily tasks. But I'm unsure of how to start, how to decide, what would be most helpful to my career, etc. Any advice?
